Turnover/handover is about transferring the finished asset with the information the new operator needs to run and maintain it. The items that fit this moment are delivering the documentation and providing the operating materials. Documentation being handed over ensures the owner has the complete records, while providing O&M manuals equips the new team to operate and maintain the system. A system checkout, on the other hand, is a commissioning activity that is completed to prove the system works to specification, and its results are typically finalized before turnover. The owner receives evidence of performance rather than re-doing the checks during handover. Sasol procedures such as LOTO and confined-space are safety practices used during the work on site—during construction and commissioning—to protect workers. They belong to the safety program and work execution phase, not to the asset handover content. That’s why these safety procedures do not typically occur as part of the turnover package.
